A 50-year-old man has been charged after allegedly using his mobile phone to film up women's skirts near Central Station.

Police will allege an off-duty officer saw the man, from Englorie Park in Sydney's south-west, standing at the base of an escalator on Eddy Avenue and taking indecent photographs of women just after 6pm on Wednesday.

The off-duty officer called officers from the Police Transport Command, who arrived a short time later and arrested the man.

They seized the man's phone, which allegedly contained more than 10 images of indecent material.

The man was taken to City Central Police Station where he was charged with filming a person's private parts without consent.

He was granted conditional bail to appear at Downing Centre Local Court on May 1.

Police are attempting to identify the alleged victims, and have appealed for anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
